Okay, sounds like you have a 1830-2130 type JD. The two levers are
indeed range and gear levers.
The left lever is the range lever and at the top-left position it will
be park. That's why you don't have any parking brakes, you have a park
gear. Top-right position is low-range (gears 1-4). Bottom-left is high
range (gears 5-8). Bottom-right is reverse. The other lever is for the
gears. Top-left is 1 (or 5) bottom-left is 2 (or 6), bottom-right is 3
(or 7), and top-right is 4 (or 8). It's not arranged like any manual
transmission is a truck, it's in a U-shaped shift pattern.

Yep that's it!! The factory labels are all long gone, but there is a
faded duct tape/marker label that had some of the positions still
showing.

It's been a long while since we traded off our 1830 on a 6300 but I
thinks that's correct. The Range positions might be interchanged.

Nope you got it right.

Hope this helps.

It does, Thanks!
